Previous owners planted quite a few bulbs with reckless abandon. I've moved most of them to more appropriate locations. Yellow daffodils bloomed a month ago. This variety is blooming now.
Most of the herbs are planted around the front porch. I've never had parsley survive the winter before - or grow so large. The stone pathway isn't particularly accessible now - unless you are as short as the duck. (He is following me on my morning rounds.)
Parsley's in bloom.
Comfrey, a medicinal herb, is in bloom as are the pansies in the background.
Hanover is attempting to bloom. I pick and eat the buds before they have a chance to open. The buds and the stems are very tender.
Ditto on the mustard greens. These have a sharper flavor.
I picked quite a few. Jungle insists we are eating weeds.
Okay, fine! I'll take your picture.

Nice garden! I just picked some early chives for soup - finally. Thanks for stopping by my blog, it looks like we have a lot in common!
Love the pictures- I tagged you for a meme too! :-)

What fun! I've never been here, but it's lovely to see so much life and color as you walk us through your garden. Makes me want to rush out and buy a bunch of seed packets, but seeing all the mature plants you've photographed, I wonder if it's too late to start with seeds? I may need to go to the nursery and buy seedlings!
